Hi there I have a few really tall trees in my garden which are overgrown with assorted vines. Is it necessary for me to cut them at the trunk (at least some of them) to keep the trees in good health? Thanks

So just cutting it at the trunk will kill the rest of it? Will the rest of the plant die and fall off? Should I cut all of them or is it ok if i leave 50%? I like how it looks but im worried about the trees.
They are some strong plants, so cutting at the lowest point will most likely kill the top, but they can get water and so other places. O just hot rid of a lot, and unless you’re digging them up, they will eventually come again. 😊
Maybe.
It depends on the vine, some of them will establish “aerial” roots and there is more than enough energy in the vine to grow back to the ground.
I’d determine the type of vine and see if the reason it is over grown is if the vine is doing it or the trees are naturally dying due to the small copse degrading
